Any other information on results incl. tables

In the clinical picture, breathing disturbances similar to those that occur in acute inhalation poisoning are observed. In individual animals the motor activity is intensified immediately after administration of the substance, although the animals display less movement and motor activity more often. Varying degrees of haemorrhaging and necrosis in the mucous membranes of the stomach, dystrophic changes in the liver, kidneys and brain were detected in macro-and micro-investigations of organ of dead rats.
